Book Now
Written by a Dutch missionary, Philip Baldaeus, this is one of the oldest book in the Museum’s collection. Illustrated with exquisite sketches and maps, the book documents the rising Dutch presence in the Indian subcontinent. The work was published to provide an accurate account of the ‘exotic colonies’. Of particular interest are the land and sea views of Bombay fort in the opening pages of the book.
